Chase Hackett of Littleton, aka “Prison Stare,” is one of 32 finalists for FX’s “Ultimate Fighter Live.”[2] The show premieres March 9 with a two-and-a-half-hour launch, that’s 16 live fights. The spectacle runs for 13 weeks.

The finalists, picked from 500 applicants, include fighters in the lightweight (155 pounds) division from the United States, England, Northern Ireland and Brazil, vying for “a six-figure contract.”

The coaches are current UFC bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz and former WEC featherweight champion and current top contender, Urijah Faber.

Not my cup o’ tea, but it could draw serious ratings for FX with the young male demographic.
